ASACP was founded in 1996 by Alec Helmy, founder and president of
XBIZ as a hotline where website operators and users could report child pornography on the internet. ASACP's online child pornography reporting hotline receives thousands of reports per month. ASACP investigates to determine the
hosting, billing,
IP address, ownership, and linkage of suspected child pornography sites. ASACP then forwards information to law enforcement, the
National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC), and hotlines in other countries. Sites can also be shut down by reporting them to their web hosts and
domain name registrars. In April 2007, the organization announced that their online reporting system had registered its 200,000th report from internet users. In late 2006, ASACP launched the RTA ("Restricted to Adults") website label. RTA is a
meta tag that webmasters place in the page headers of adult websites to better enable parental
filtering. On June 22, 2007, ASACP held a press conference to officially announce the RTA website label. Numerous major pornographic sites use the RTA label, including,
Pornhub,
Xhamster,
Xvideos and
kink.com. ==See also==
